Employment Minister Amanda Rishworth said that the increase above inflation would help workers to keep up with the cost of living.

“For one of the usual hours related to the minimum wage, this will be an extra 1700 dollars. This allows these workers to receive the payment they deserve,” he said.

“We have explained very much that we think that these workers deserve a real wage increase in order to ensure that they do not stay behind, but they can actually proceed.”

The changes made on Tuesday mean that the amount of retirement paid to the workers’ accounts will increase from 11.5 percent to 12 percent and will be expanded to including parents who allow you to look at their newborns.

The retirement savings of one or two mothers will increase an increase of approximately $ 14,800, and about 200,000 candles will benefit from the change every year.
